World records could tumble across the Paris 2024 Olympics on Wednesday 7 August when 21 more gold medals are on offer.
In the track cycling, the men’s team pursuit world record has been broken at each of the last six Olympic Games, and defending champions Italy are among the nations in contention once more along with Great Britain and current world champions Denmark.
Both the men’s and women’s team pursuit finals take place on Wednesday evening, with Great Britain and New Zealand expected to battle for gold in the women's event – just as they did in the women’s team sprint on Monday, where Team GB came out on top.
Elsewhere, do not miss sport climbing supremo Aleksandra Mirosław in the women’s Speed final on Wednesday afternoon.
A warning, though. Look away from your screens for a few seconds and you could well miss her, with Mirosław scaling the wall in 6.06 seconds during qualifying on Monday to break her own world record – find out if she does so again in the final.
In the athletics at the Stade de France, among the gold medal events are the men’s 400m final – which could be USA’s Quincy Hall versus Team GB’s Matthew Hudson-Smith for gold – and the women’s pole vault final, where Nina Kennedy is bidding to back-up her 2023 world title.
